I’m an active, nomadic, spontaneous flexible, outdoors kinda gal. Under developed countries spark my interest as they change so fast, visiting for extended time engaging with local folks in their community & country, hiking & horse trips, reading books, investigating culture, history & politics of the country I'm traveling.

I delight in: amusing my self, telling the truth, travel by public transport, river/horseback and cheese. I rarely hurry yet can get ready to go in a heartbeat, love doing anything I’ve never done before. I have a penchant for funny one liners.

Duncan McPhee purchased this house in 2010

Why Duncan McPhee chose Freeland

I love the beach and neighborhood, a great place to walk shady tree lined streets away from busy traffic. It is private, friendly and so close to anything you might want or enjoy. No franchises in South Whidbey so you can shop supporting small businesses. Wine tasting, wonderful farmers markets, studio art tours, great unique music at local coffee houses.

What makes this house unique

Viewing nature on a pristine beach, enjoy organic garden veggies, dig shellfish from the besach. I love to kayak, paddle board, crab, swim, boat and bicycle from my front door Free public buses into Freeland on weekdays. A huge variety of quiet forested walking trails and an even bigger selection of beaches to walk along. The ferry ride is a 12 minute ride from Mukilteo to Clinton, no reservations departs on 1/2 hour. Go upstairs in the ferry to enjoy the 360 degree views of the islands and Cascade Mountain range on the trip.

Amazing ocean views from almost every window. This is the place to bring your bikes, canoes, kayaks or boat. You are on the waterfront! A boat launch road is up the street. Lounging on the long comfy window seat overlooking the sea is deliciously relaxing. You can watch your kids on the beach from the house. 2 bedrooms: Oceanview Master has new King & 1 twin. Garden View New Queen bed and 1 twin bed. Comfortable leather furniture is set around the fireplace in a spacious living room plus a wood stove for toasty evenings & electric heat in all rooms. A large upstairs bedroom has 5 windows to view the sea, it parallels the ocean with a King bed, a Twin bed and a Leather chaise. Main floor bedroom has a Queen & Twin bed: garden views. The beach is a fabulous walk at low tide. Beachcombers delight~ enjoy lots of shells, lovely stones & driftwood. A colorful variety of neighborhood boats, canoes and kayaks adorn the beach.

Cute beach front cottage

We really enjoyed our stay at this beach front home. It is in a beautiful location and the home is very eclectic, clean, and cozy. The beds and pillows were comfortable.

The driveway is an issue. We had two vehicles and it was very difficult to maneuver them in and out of the driveway/parking area, especially given precise parking/driveway instructions. You may want to bring fire making supplies if you will be staying in the winter months. When we arrived the heat was turned off and the home was very, very cold and we were unable to make a fire due to inadequate fire making supplies.

The beach was wonderful, covered with shells, no sand-dollars unfortunately. We saw many eagles and seals, a sea otter on the beach and a little bunny in the yard. The big picture window with seating was great; we spent all of our time in front of the window enjoying the view, both during the day and at night looking at the stars. A pair of binoculars would have been great to enhance the viewing. None the less we had a great stay and would love to come back.

Beautiful view

I love the view and layout of the house. It's cozy and comfortable and our family had a great time sitting in the picture window relaxing with a wonderful view of the water , walking the beach and playing games. The house is in need of some minor maintenance and upkeep but nothing that affected our stay. This is the second time we have stayed here and we thoroughly enjoyed the view, deer and other wildlife that came by. Duncan and Kathy were great to work with and accommodated our very last minute reservation request! Thank you for that!! And we will stay again!

wonderful beach house

This is our second year renting at Seashell Beach House and we hope to come back again next summer. The convenient location close to Freeland and Langley can't be beat, and the sloping lawn with easy access to the beach is what we love best. The house is very comfortable, with a roomy and open sitting, dining and kitchen area-with great views of the water.

Relaxing Stay!

We had a nice week long stay at this lovely home which is right on the water with large windows. Responsive owners who care a lot about their property and have taken the time to write detailed instructions about how to care for their home and use items (electronics, etc.).

Quiet, lovely, well equipped, and comfortable.

We enjoyed our 4 days at the Seashell Beach House. A lovely view from the back deck and the cozy window seat. The kitchen was well equipped (we especially loved the waffle iron, one of the old well-seasoned and non-teflon ones -- what I wouldn't give to find one of those!). The upstairs "master" bedroom is lovely with a glorious view and a little porch looking out to the water. The room is so large that there is also an extra twin bed, and that is where our 16-yr. old wound up sleeping instead of the 2nd bedroom downstairs. That 2nd bedroom is very crowded with a double bed and a twin bed. If you have a few young kids, that would work. But it is a bit cramped and dreary and so the one upstairs was way more appealing for our teen. Thanks for the lovely and relaxing stay.
